Red face Purchased accessories for a car I don't have yet,lol...

Who else here has purchased accessories while waiting for your car to arrive...or am I the only one,lol?

So far, I have purchased a black metal license plate frame with an etched Leaper, a windshield sun shade and a set of Union Jack valve stem caps...only 140+ days left until my car arrives so I can use these items...!

This is my sixth Jaguar/Land Rover vehicle from the same dealership, so they threw in the Black license plate holder. Also, Buickfunnycar, I showed them a response from you about the JCNA $2500.00 rebate on my phone, and Voila! They called JCNA and gave me the discount! Thanks!

Toured 'Bama with my daughter last March, as her academic credentials qualify her for a full tuition scholarship. Wish she was more interested.

Yeah you can order them but the bottleneck right now is the Jaguar factory (or subcontractor) that actually does the plate cutting. They're running a backlog, which seems crazy. Haven't they heard of lean manufacturing :-)
